The Franklin County Sheriff's Office arrested Sandra Anne Loudermilk-Conkel on Saturday on a charge of first-degree murder. She was being held Monday without bond. Jail records did not show whether she had an attorney.

Loudermilk-Conkel's mother was found dead Wednesday on a beach about 10 miles west of Apalachicola. The cause of death has not been released. Autopsy results are pending.
